About Hector Couto

Over the last decade, Spanish born Hector Couto has established himself as a driving force on the international Tech House scene. His unique take on the genre fuses the jack of Chicago with the atmosphere of old school techno and his own roots, resulting in fresh, compelling productions that always get floors moving and, importantly, feeling. He is prolific, too, with a steady and standout stream of EPs coming on labels such as Saved, Hot Creations, 20/20 Vision, Moon Harbour and Viva Music. Because of this, he is often featured in Resident Advisor’s Top 100 Most Charted artists, and has been nominated multiple key industry awards in his time.

When DJing, he is just as diverse and he never repeats the same trick twice. It means he is able to skilfully mix up a wide array of sounds that are perfectly suited to whatever club or festival he plays, whether that’s Pacha Barcelona or Amnesia Ibiza (Music On / Together), We Are Festival in London or Halycon in San Francisco. On top of all this, he also heads up his own Roush label, which mixes up established artists including DJ W!LD and Steve Lawler with upcoming talents, and has helped make Hector Couto a respected voice in the global house conversation.

A regular at the best clubs in Europe, Hector’s skills have also taken him around North and South America, Australia and New Zealand. Despite a busy DJ diary, he still finds time to turn out underground hits.

Hector Couto is one of the most respected artists around with a true global allure for his genre of house music, with his unique production style which has been described as being the perfect blend of Chicago house and old-school techno, Couto has been busy making waves within the dance scene for the past seven years. His groove-thickened vibey DJ sets have seen him throw it down at some of the biggest clubs and festivals in the world, while his prolific work in the studio has landed him successful releases on labels such as Hot Creations, 20/20 Vision, Get Physical, Moon Harbour & Defected, also releasing on his own label Roush, it’s safe to say he has amassed an impressive resumé.

Couto, who’s commanded respect from the industry through his achievements, in no time at all has appeared in the Resident Advisor’s Top 100 Most Charted artists and nominated as one of the best house artist for the Vicious Music Awards in 2016.

Lauded time and time again for his “unique” style, Couto decided in 2013 to launch his own record label Roush and believes that with his ability to balance established artists and emerging talent is what makes the imprint standout in the genre’s hugely competitive market.
